Simply Green

Wandering around the Olympic Peninsula on a misty day, I found this cluster of fern fronds and liked the texture and shadows.

Canon 1Ds, 35-350mm @ 63mm, f/4 for 0.3 sec, ISO 200, tripod, polarizer.

Phillip, very green indeed! I like the comp & colors here a lot. It seems like the brightness is only toward the middle of the image...were the outsides of the image in shade?

Very nice fern photo! I love ferns and am always on the lookout for a pleasing arrangement/composition.

Really like the pattern and textures in this Phillip, nice light as well, I like how it almost makes them glow a bit in the center.

Simple, clean and sharp the colors play well here with varying depths of green
